Todays install went without a hitch. Installed Kubuntu on my Thinkpad T61p, ran the installer, moved a MD from an existing install onto the internal net of the Thinkpad, booted it, announced to router, rebootedBLACK SCREEN

hmm. There was something with a black screen in the wiki ... ah, press 2 for DVI, and low and behold the AV Wizards page comes up - noob problem fixed

Went thru AV Wizard and Sarah, and have the Orbiter up and running. On the core, change room to the MD, press power, power off - MD goes down. GOOD. Press Power On - MD goes on. Good

I'm very happy for you but not for me. At the moment is still working only from an orbiter in windows ambient. Not from the core system.

It's possible that this week-end I'll restart from the beginning the complete reinstallation from the installer for the core , and will follow whats happen.

I'll send you my impressions at the end of the installation. This is very strange, because I'm able to use all the other features, like VDR (compiled from sources based on VDR packages for 0710) from the MDs both DVB-S and DVB-T, videos, music and so on.

Good to hear, that the rest is working quite well. Would you mind explaining, why you compiled VDR yourself? It should automatically be installed from the kubuntu repository. I am using the one from the hanno.de repository, as it contains support for the vompserver plugin and the source caps patch.

I've finished the reinstallation from scratch. And now the problem persit. If I use the power menu from the CORE the MD will go down but also the core

I've checked the DCERouter.log and the message is sent to the id of the core and not to the md.

Where is possible to check also the GUI configuration managed from the mysql tables? I think it's not possible to be a mine mistacke. I've installed several times LinuxMCE also the releases before and never happen this.
